Per Doc CD:
"The network number identifies a physical network. It is a 4-byte (32-bit)
quantity that must be unique throughout the entire IPX
internetwork. The network number is expressed as hexadecimal digits. The
maximum number of digits allowed is eight.
The Cisco IOS software does not require that you enter all eight digits; you
can omit leading zeros."
In hex, each digit, 0 thru f, accounts for 2 binary digits, e.g., f is equal
to '11' in binary, right? With respect to the above statement on IPX
network numbers, am I correct in assuming what they mean is "The Cisco IOS
software does not require that you enter all four hex digits; you can omit
leading zeros."?
Thanks.
